SCSI BIOS ∼ FAST!UTIL ∼
For several settings of the SCSI controller on the motherboard, the SCSI BIOS utility "Fast!UTIL"
is used.
The SCSI BIOS utility can be started by simple keystrokes during execution of POST without use
of a special start disk.
The SCSI BIOS built in the server is set to the optimum at the shipment. Accordingly, the SCSI
BIOS may not be changed by using this utility.
IMPORTANT:
Leave the settings for the SCSI controller to which built-in hard disks are connected as
they are at shipment. If any of the settings are changed, see the description in this
document to return to the settings at shipment. The controllers installed in each module
must be configured individually.
Fast!UTIL of the latest version is installed in the NEC Express5800/ft series. Accordingly,
the setting screen may be different from that described in this document. See the online
help or contact your sales agent for the setting items different from those in this document.
Start
The procedure of starting Fast!UTIL is described below.
Notes
Note the following before starting Fast!UTIL.
Settings for built-in hard disk
Leave the settings for the built-in hard disk as they are at shipment. The built-in host
adapter is specified as QLA12160 Ultra3 2000 in the Select Host Adapter dialog box.
Settings of built-in SCSI controller installed in each group
Mount only the PCI module which has the built-in SCSI controller that you want to
check the settings and start Fast!UTIL. Remove the other PCI module from the system.
Do not change the factory settings of the built-in SCSI controller.
Although there may be descriptions that the SCSI BIOS of the host adapter needs to
be configured in manuals for tape devices, etc., this server does not require
modifications to the settings. Do not change the settings.
